@JackTheCat > So why on earth isn't there one standard letter per school, if not one standard letter for the whole country, that can be reused by absolutely everyone whenever this standard event happens? Why does this require AI to generate a new one every time, rather than just being a standard email that gets sent?
Because venture capitalists need a return on their investment. How else are your favourite billionaires gonna become trillionaires, Andrew?

The first thing is that Linux is everywhere and already used by professionals all around the world.
I could take the example of Android, which is the most popular smartphone OS in the world, and using a Linux kernel. I could turn to the absolute domination of Linux on the server space.
I could also point to every NAS out there, generally using a Linux kernel, if we look at IoT and small appliances, Linux also dominates the space. But it's not what people intend when talking about an OS. Generally, they mean that the Linux DESKTOP isn't ready for professionals.
The first obvious counter argument is developers. Linux is used by 47% of professional developers. That's higher than the market share of macOS among developers.
If we take the vast majority of people who will interact with a computer, what do they truly need in their day to day job? A web browser, an email client, an office suite, and a usable interface.
On that specific front, Linux has all that's needed. Whether it's KDE for an interface closer to Windows, or GNOME for the simplest thing to use possible, the Linux desktop IS one of the most usable out there.
In terms of web browsers, there's no question, we have them all. For email clients, we do lack Outlook, but the web interface might be enough for most people's needs, and if not, we have awesome clients that can replace Outlook: Evolution and Thunderbird.
LibreOffice might be a great option for a lot of people, but it does have some problems, let's face it. But LibreOffice isn't our only choice. For perfect compatibility, we have access to SoftMaker Office, now called FreeOffice, or to WPS Office.
Now, for media creation, Linux lacks all the Adobe programs. But that doesn't mean we don't have tools either. Davinci Resolve is a tool used by professionals and hollywood studios to edit videos, edit audio, and create virtual effects. It basically does what Audition, After Effects and Premiere do, in one single package. it's available on Linux.
We have Blender for VFX. Houdini, a tool used by VFX artists for simulations? It's on Linux. Maya? It's on Linux. Studio One, a professional DIgital Audio Workstation, just released a beta for Linux. We have inkscape, Ardour, Krita - one of the most popular digital drawing apps- OBS, PDF Studio for editing PDF documents, Bitwig, and a lot more.
Whether you like AI or not, it's happening. And AI is a professional domain in which Linux is the standard.
And that's the tip of the iceberg. Cybersecurity professionals mostly use Linux. Almost 100% of supercomputers used for any specific domain run Linux. The whole space industry runs on Linux. A bunch of military sytems run Linux.
The market share of Linux on the desktop is low, there's no denying that: it's listed at barely 3%, far below macOS or Windows. But this doesn't include another system: Chrome OS. And chrome OS has 3.9% market share on the desktop. Combined with non Chrome OS Linux ssytems, taht's almost 7%. it's still lower than proprietary OSes, but that's a LOT of computers running a Linux system.
Now, that doesn't mean Linux is ready for every professional out there. If you absolutely need certain software that's not available, then Linux won't work for you. But I'd argue that it's not necessarily a Linux problem: it has the tools needed to do the same job in most cases. It's just not the tools you're allowed to use, or want to use.

The Chinese Academy of Sciences has developed an automated chip design system named QiMeng, which uses AI to accelerate semiconductor development.
The system, which includes a domain-specific large processor chip model, a hardware and software design agent, and various processor chip design applications, can design chips in days that might take weeks for human developers.

Mine is easily Alex Jones.
I’ve learned much from listening to him, been introduced to countless interesting and informative people, and he was even instrumental to some degree in my return to faith in God.
All the things I don’t like about him are too long a list to write out, but it’s all obvious stuff people complain about.
Most exoplanets have been detected indirectly through the transit or radial velocity method. But here's an image of the exoplanet 14 Herculis c captured by Webb. It has about 7 Jupiter masses, but with a surface temperature of only -3°C. There's another planet in the system that's much closer and not directly observed. The two planets are inclined relative to each other at an angle of 40 degrees. 14 Herculis c would orbit between Saturn and Uranus in the Solar System.

Please convince me that I should continue my support or advice what I can do. I'm prepared to do my part, but I can only do so if I can be sure that my support is not going to people who think arbitrary Censorship is alright (needs to be based on objective community rules and not on the political agenda of mods).
I didn't realize that I was banned from .ml. Am I? Anyway, that's not the point. My point is to support technology that allows free expression, especially since that's not the case with mainstream platforms. And by free expression of opinion, I mean what is commonly understood by that term – not baseless insults, accusations, conspiracy theories, or anything else that lacks any factual basis. I mean the free expression of legitimate, debatable opinions. That should be the most natural thing in the world.
The developers of Lemmy (the software that runs this) are affiliated with lemmy.ml. I don't like their attitude towards social media. That is why I asked if I can support Lemmy (the software) without contributing to Lemmy.ml.
NASA astronaut Franklin Chang-Diaz works with a grapple fixture during a June 2002 spacewalk outside of the International Space Station. He was partnered with CNES (Centre National d’Etudes Spatiales) astronaut Philippe Perrin for the spacewalk – one of three that occurred during the STS-111 mission. Chang-Diaz was part of NASA’s ninth class of astronaut candidates. […]
« Les choses n'apparaissent pas comme par magie parce que c'est pratique pour vous de penser qu'elles le font. Les choses viennent de quelque part. Ces objets nécessitent du matériel. Il y a des coûts associés à l'extraction de ces matériaux. Ces frais sont payés par quelqu'un. Même si vous voulez vraiment un système de transport en commun génial à énergie solaire, les matériaux doivent toujours provenir d'un endroit où quelqu'un d'autre a vécu jusqu'à ce que sa maison soit détruite afin que vous puissiez avoir ce que vous voulez.
Si nous voulons comprendre comment et pourquoi une ville - et par extension, une civilisation industrielle - ne peut jamais être rendue durable, il serait bien d'avoir une définition commune de CE QU'EST UNE VILLE. Peu de gens (y compris, ironiquement, les urbanistes) comprennent ce qu'est une #ville ou comment elle fonctionne.
Nous définissons une ville comme des personnes vivant dans des densités suffisamment élevées pour nécessiter l'importation régulière de ressources. Cela distingue les villes des villages ou des #villes qui soutiennent leurs populations des terres voisines. (Dans le prolongement de cela, une #civilisation est un mode de vie défini par la #croissance des villes, entre autres caractéristiques telles que l'agriculture, les armées permanentes, les bureaucraties et les hiérarchies de pouvoir injuste.)
Dès que vous avez besoin de l'importation routinière de #ressources pour survivre, deux choses se produisent. La première est que votre mode de vie ne peut jamais être durable, car exiger l'importation de ressources signifie que vous avez dénudé le paysage de ces ressources particulières, et tout mode de vie qui nuit au territoire dont vous avez besoin pour survivre n'est par définition pas durable. Au fur et à mesure que votre ville grandit, vous dénuderez une zone de plus en plus grande pour soutenir la ville.
Soyons précis : où obtenez-vous des briques pour votre ville ? Où obtenez-vous du bois? Où obtenez-vous de la nourriture? Où trouve-t-on du cuivre pour les fils électriques ? Où vont les eaux usées ? (Eh bien, dans le cas de New York, elles étaient déversées dans l'océan, mais quand cela a été arrêté par l'EPA, New York l'a envoyé au Colorado, et maintenant il l'envoie en Alabama, où, "Cela réduit considérablement la qualité de vie de tous ceux qui se trouvent autour", selon Heather Hall, le maire de Parrish, Alabama. "Vous ne pouvez pas sortir, vous ne pouvez pas vous asseoir sur votre porche, et ce genre de choses, c'est ici dans notre ville.") Où vont les #déchets électroniques ? Tout vient de quelque part et va quelque part. Les fées vertes brillantes n'apportent pas de friandises dans la nuit et suppriment simultanément toutes les mauvaises choses.
C'est un schéma que nous avons vu depuis l'essor de la première ville. Le modèle n'est pas un accident. Ce n'est pas non plus accessoire. C'est ainsi que fonctionnent les villes.
Un signe d'intelligence est la capacité à reconnaître des modèles. De combien de milliers d'années de villes dévastatrices avons-nous besoin avant de reconnaître ce schéma ?
C'est une vraie question.
La deuxième chose qui se passe, c'est que votre mode de vie dépend de la conquête : si vous avez besoin de cette ressource et que les gens d'autres communautés ne vous échangeront pas contre elle, vous la prendrez. Si vous ne pouvez pas le prendre, ou si vous le refusez, votre ville diminuera. C'est encore une fois la façon dont les villes ont fonctionné depuis le début. (…) »

— the tone you mention has definitely decreased my interest in the show the last couple of years.
In fact, I made the following list while listening to a couple shows in January 2024, just before the great NAS schism.
I originally intended to submit it to them as constructive criticism, but then figured it was probably a waste of time and would just be one more thing they complained about. 😂
Complaints made during two No Agenda donation segments: - Complained about the number of trolls - Complained about the number of donations - Complained about people on NAS - Complained about the quality of art submissions - Complained more about the number of donations - Complained about the length of notes - Complained about the overt advertising copy in notes - Complained about people skipping the donation segment - Complained about people complaining about their complaining
— I enjoy when they constructively critique the art, and even generally give the artists a hard time.
It did get old though when they were complaining about all the AI art submissions, and then kept also using it most of the time. 🤦🏻♀️
But I’ve been overboard for a few months now (from all podcasts), so maybe things are different these days. I’d assume AI art is just the resigned norm now?

what's up lads, i got my missing bolt that i need. finished sandblasting the battery tray that was rusted and another bracket that has been annoying me looking under the hood. now maybe i can finish this 2nd motor mount
sandblasting *could* be deeply satisfying if it wasn't for this horriffic harbor freight compressor. someday i will have a big ass 220v compressor that delivers adequate air for blasting and is quiet.
Setting up a personal site on local hardware has been on my bucket list for along time. I finally bit he bullet and got a basic website running with apache on a Ubuntu based linux distro. I bought a domain name, linked it up to my l ip got SSL via lets encrypt for https and added some header rules until security headers and Mozilla observatory gave it a perfect score.
Am I basically in the clear? What more do I need to do to protect my site and local network? I'm so scared of hackers and shit I do not want to be an easy target.
I would like to make a page about the hardware its running on since I intend to have it be entirely ran off solar power like solar.lowtechmagazine and wanted to share technical specifics. But I heard somewhere that revealing the internal state of your server is a bad idea since it can make exploits easier to find. Am I being stupid for wanting to share details like computer model and software running it?
No need to cargo-cult security practices here, chief. You’re not gonna get pwned by publishing your hardware specs. If you’re planning to build some kinda webapp for yourself, that’s a different story - but you have to fuck up hard to get hacked while hosting raw HTML.
Use an SSH key, disable password auth, make sure you’re firewalled (i.e. test with nmap), and call it a day.
This is dangerous advice because docker is well-known for undoing UFW’s iptable rules. It’s mitigated by binding to localhost, but still way too easy for people to shoot themselves in the foot by using the two together.
You shouldn’t suggest UFW at all then. There are other firewall options that can be used just fine with docker.
It does have real potential to cause serious issues, e.g. if OP were to put their server in DMZ mode on their router and later copy some docker setup instructions that don’t explicitly bind to localhost.
Please tell me more, which firewall would you recommend that plays nice with Docker?
Firewalld
No NAT?
Another user in this thread suggested DMZing, so combine your advice with theirs and boom. It’s not uncommon, and it’s fine if you firewall the box yourself. Most people don’t knowingly choose to use a firewall that they don’t intend to work, like you would.
why would you copy paste a docker compose without reading it?
There’s more than one way to use docker. Spinning up an official mysql image using the official docker run OR docker compose calls suggested by the docs would start up a server wide open to the entire internet if DMZ’d.
HAVANA, Cuba, June 10 (ACN) With an official ceremony in Seoul, the capital of the Republic of Korea, the Cuban Embassy in that Asian nation was opened today.
🟥Myroslav #Oleshko sur X🟥 «Je vais vous dire la vérité sur l’Ukraine que vos médias cachent. #Zelensky a interdit aux Ukrainiens de manifester contre les actions du gouvernement. Ce jeune homme brandissait une pancarte à Kiev sur laquelle était écrit : «La guerre n'est pas une raison pour instaurer une dictature. Les voyous de Zelensky continuent d'enlever des gens !» Et voilà. La police l'a arrêté et jeté en prison.
Dans le même temps, Zelensky utilise la démocratie américaine pour organiser des rassemblements rémunérés à New York, Washington et dans d’autres villes des États-Unis et d’Europe afin de créer l’illusion de son soutien parmi les citoyens occidentaux.
En Ukraine aujourd’hui, il est IMPOSSIBLE de s’engager dans des activités d’opposition. Des centaines de journalistes, blogueurs et hommes politiques de renom ont déjà été arrêtés.
Imaginez : un député a récemment été arrêté simplement pour avoir critiqué Andriy Yermak, l'adjoint de Zelensky.
Un autre député de l'opposition, Oleksandr #Dubinsky, a été arrêté pour avoir soutenu Donald Trump. L'opposant politique Petro #Porochenko a été frappé de sanctions illégales et menacé de prison pour avoir critiqué Zelensky.
Tout le monde est désormais intimidé. Toutes les chaînes de télévision sont sous le contrôle du gouvernement. 99 % des blogueurs du pays sont soudoyés avec de l’argent corrompu et des subventions de l’ #USAID.
Pour pouvoir dire la vérité et exprimer mon opinion, j’ai quitté l’ #Ukraine et j’ai immédiatement été poursuivi en justice pour avoir critiqué le gouvernement.
Mon collègue, le blogueur d'opposition Denys #Yelysevych, actuellement aux États-Unis, n'a pas pu être arrêté. C'est sa mère qui a été arrêtée à Kiev pour avoir republié une vidéo Facebook critiquant Andriy Yermak.
L'opposition est en exil. Qu'en pensez-vous ? C'est pourquoi Zelensky refuse d'organiser des élections et déclare publiquement qu'il ne quittera pas ses fonctions, même si son mandat présidentiel a pris fin il y a un an. Je continuerai à publier les faits sur les crimes et la corruption de Zelensky, que j’ai rassemblés au cours des six dernières années de son règne. Abonnez-vous et retweetez pour que le monde puisse voir. Je dirai ceci en tant qu’Ukrainien opposé à Zelensky : Trump nous a donné de l’espoir et une chance de liberté, de paix et de démocratie. Sincèrement, L'opposant ukrainien Myroslav Oleshko »
